The Requirements

AEJ were first involved with this building in the early 1980's when the firm extended the original 300 seat auditorium to a 1000 seat function centre above a new senior citizens facility.

The Requirements

In 2012 AEJ were engaged to develop a design and prepare construction documents taking into account current stringent requirements for sustainability and accessibility.

The Solution / Outcome

With the firms involvement with the original Civic Centre, AEJ were able to provide a solution which respected the original development. Joint Regional Planning Panel deputy chair Alison McCabe complimented the Civic Centre design for being flexible and adaptable.

The Solution / Outcome

Council's Project Manager, Wayne Brighton, stated that, "AEJ managed and delivered documentation which complied with a very tight timeframe with quality as good as I have ever seen. I remain grateful for their devotion and attention to detail."
